This intricate design for a pedestal, created by Jean Charles Delafosse in 1771, exemplifies the Rococo style prevalent in 18th-century France. The pedestal's decorative elements, such as the floral garlands and a central medallion featuring a classical figure, are characteristic of this period. The artist, renowned for his decorative work, aimed to capture the elegant and playful spirit of the Rococo. This drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of the time.
